英文摘要 | Mantle transition zone connects Earth's upper and lower mantle and holds key information on the compositional and thermal states at depths. The depth variation, i.e. topography, of mantle transition zone discontinuities implies regional changes of temperature and/or composition because of their well-established relationship to the solid phase transitions between high-pressure polymorphs of olivine. Based on the teleseismic receiver functions collected from densely deployed permanent network and two temporary arrays in Northeast China, we imaged the transition zone structures using Ps scattering kernel. The results show clear boundaries of the Northwest Pacific slab at the transition zone depth, with a dip angle of about 30 degrees. We observed 20 similar to 40 km depression of the 660-km discontinuity near where prior tomographic studies suggested subducted slab. Such depression may be explained by the lower mantle temperature caused by the cold Pacific plate. Beneath the northwest of Changbaishan and Longgang Volcano, the 660-km discontinuity is elevated by 5 similar to 15 km, indicating high temperature anomalies that may come from upwelling. In contrast, the topography of the 410-km discontinuity reveals a widely spreading 10 km depression in most areas, and it shows obvious regional lateral variation. Such large-scale depression suggests that compositional changes introduced from subduction, such as basalt fraction and water content, also play a role in controlling the 410-km discontinuity topography. The high-resolution three-dimensional topography of the mantle transition zone obtained in this study will motivate further investigations on understanding the transformation of mantle material distribution and energy exchange by subduction plates in Northeast Asia. |
